[Elftoolchain-developers] Overdue for a release

ELF Tool Chain is still changing frequently and I suspect most users will want to fetch the latest from SVN. That said, on the Sourceforge files page it reports that the release tarball is downloaded ~ 20 times per week. A lot of progress has been made since the 0.6.1 release in 2012 and I think

[Elftoolchain-developers] Ubuntu 17.10 is EOL

It seems that Ubuntu 17.10 is our currently supported Linux version, but it went EOL as of July 2018. 18.04 is likely a good choice as it is supported until 2028. However, I don't normally use Linux; it would be good if someone can make sure ELF Tool Chain builds on 18.04 and then add a build

[Elftoolchain-developers] ELF Tool Chain svn-git conversion

The current ELF Tool Chain git mirror[1] is produced using "git svn", and doesn't correctly represent changes prior to r402, when the svn repo was reorganized to match the standard svn layout. This conversion is in the (currently default) trunk branch[2]. I have produced a prototype mirror using

[Elftoolchain-developers] Building additional documentation

INSTALL contains a caution for FreeBSD: > - Building additional documentation is not currently supported under > FreeBSD 11.3. Other operating systems have a similar note. However, there is no issue building on FreeBSD that I can see; the generated libelf-by-example.pdf looks fine. Was there

[Elftoolchain-developers] Overall status from ELF Tool Chain test suite

I submitted ticket #579 for this issue but I think it's worthwhile raising it here for discussion. I can't find an easy way to determine an overall status (pass or fail) from the test suite. For the issue I just investigated (ticket #575) I bisected the failure by having the bisect script run

A patch for this issue is in FreeBSD's review system, available at https://reviews.freebsd.org/D23782. It was started by one of the FreeBSD Foundation's co-op students last term, and he's returned for another internship. Mark and I are iterating on the patch in review now; more eyes on the patch
